From modest beginnings in Anglesea, Coastline Advice was founded by Darryn Jacobs in 2002 and has since transformed into one of the region’s premier Financial Advice and Mortgage Broking firms.
Renowned for our goal-based and personalised financial strategies, Coastline has earned multiple prestigious awards, including Astrum’s esteemed Large Practice of the Year award in 2022. As a testament to our growth and success, we now have four offices in Torquay, Anglesea, Barwon Heads and Wonthaggi.
